DJ issues with Windenberg Outdoor events
I'm just wondering if anyone else is still having problems with the DJ's at the three Windenberg outdoor events (Ruins, Bluffs, Chalet). While playing today, my household was invited to 2 events on consecutive nights. One at the Ruins and one at the Bluffs. Since it was late spring, off my sims went. In both cases, the DJs showed up at the spawn point and didn't move from that spot during the entire event in both places. So no dance party. Now this is not a new issue for me and doing a search here brought up threads that started over a year ago that pretty much say the same as I saw today. But the last posts in the two I found were more than 6 months old and there was a patch a while ago that adjusted the weather in Windenberg for the events as well in San Myshuno for the festivals which I think was after the last post was made. I had not tried any of the 3 events since the patch until today.
Anyway, weather at the first event at the Ruins was cloudy with a chance of rain although it was not raining. The only DJ booth option (Use) was greyed out saying that electronics can't be used in the rain. So I popped into build buy and put in a weather machine on the little lot behind the ruins, changed the weather to clear and in a few minutes, the weather icon changed to clear and the option on the booth went active. Although it is useless anyway since it just keep disappearing from the queues of all my sims when I sent them to run the booth. It's always been that way though. I have never succeeded in having an active sim use a DJ booth at those 3 events, even before Seasons. I had a pretty big crowd but no dancing. At least it wasn't raining which seemed to always be the case since Seasons. Had fun amazing the crowd with spellcaster duels since there was no dancing.
The 2nd event was the next night at the Bluffs. Weather was clear from the start and the Use option was on the booth. Still wouldn't work for any of my sims. The DJ in this case was a ghost. Again, a pretty big crowd and no dancing. Again, at least it wasn't raining. Did manage to get a good chunk of the crowd to skinny dip though. That was entertaining anyway.
So is anyone else still seeing this type of thing in your game and have you noticed any change since the patch that adjusted the weather?
